While researching Web 2.0 sites I found many I enjoyed. In fact I found so many I already forgot some of them. Then following a link that Dr. Henry supplied us I found a site that will end my amnesia and help me keep all of these sites and many more in the future at my finger tips. This site is Delicious.com. It is a website that users can save other websites onto. This is an improvement to bookmarking or saving to favorites for several reasons. First this site can be accessed from any computer which is great because I go back and forth from my laptop to my desktop and the sites can be found by using Delicious.com. Also, Delicious is a social sight, so user can interact and find sites that other users saved creating a network of useful information. I'm currently using it for storing all of the great Web 2.0 websites that I find so that when I become a teacher I can easily find these sites and use them in my classroom. Delicious also helps organize the websites you save with tags you create while saving the website. This way hundreds of websites can be narrowed down to a few.

Below is a screen capture of my own personal profile on delicious.com and just some of the many sites I have began to compile. Now when I am introduced or stumble upon a web site that I feel may be of some worth I press my "save on delicious" tab on my browsers toolbar that I placed on there, and I can now go back whenever and wherever I want and review these resources. Feel free to add me so me can share the sites we find and create a useful database of valuable internet sites. My profile name is harris318.
